The Effect of Ice Massage on Pain, Ecchymosis, Hematoma and Patient Satisfaction
Sponsor: Erzurum Technical University
Summary
The research was planned to measure pain, ecchymosis, hematoma and patient satisfaction with ice massage applied to the fistula before the arteriovenous fistula procedure in hemodialysis patients. Patients who agree to participate in the study will be given ice massage before the procedure and the relevant parameters will be measured.

Measurement surveys will be applied to obtain pre-test data from hemodialysis patients who meet the research criteria. After the preliminary test data are obtained, ice cubes prepared by the researchers before the needle insertion into the arteriovenous fistula for the hemodialysis procedure will be wrapped in a thin sponge and an ice massage will be applied to the needle insertion area of the patient in a direction that will not disrupt the circulation. This process will take approximately 3-5 minutes or the massage will be terminated when the patient feels drowsiness. In the next stage, the patient will undergo needle intervention for hemodialysis. At the end of this stage, the patient's pain will be evaluated. Patients will be re-evaluated at 24, 48 and 72 hours for ecchymosis and hematoma and relevant measurements will be provided.
